I. Background
On May 24, 2018, President Trump
signed into law the Economic Growth
Act (Pub. L. 115–174, 132 Stat. 1296).1
The purpose of the Economic Growth
Act is to promote economic growth,
provide tailored regulatory relief, and
enhance consumer protections. Section
209 of the Economic Growth Act added
section 38 to the United States Housing
Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437 et seq.) and
made several amendments pertaining to
small PHAs, which for the purposes of
section 38, are PHAs that administer
550 or fewer combined public housing
units and vouchers under section 8(o),
and predominantly operate in a rural
area as described in 12 CFR
1026.35(b)(2)(iv)(A). These provisions
streamline certain requirements related
to program inspections and evaluations,
corrective action requirements,
environmental reviews, and energy
conservation funding and financing
requirements. Certain statutory
amendments made by section 209
became effective 60 days after
enactment (July 23, 2018). However,
while effective, some of the provisions
require rulemaking or guidance for
implementation.
HUD published a notice in the
Federal Register on February 14, 2019,
entitled ‘‘Section 209 of the Economic
Growth, Regulatory Relief, and
Consumer Protection Act: Initial
Guidance’’ which, read together with
the statutory language, was intended to
aid HUD program participants and the
public in understanding the reasons for
deferred action with respect to specific
statutory provisions. See 84 FR 4097.
HUD also used the notice as an
opportunity to seek public comment on
the implementation of the section 209
provisions, including the definition of a
small PHA.
II. Public Comments Regarding the
Small PHA Definition
Clarification of ‘‘predominantly
operates in a rural area.’’ Commenters
responded to several options. A PHA
could be deemed to predominantly
operate in a rural area if one or more of
the following conditions apply: (1) The

physical address of the PHA’s main
administrative office is in a rural area (a
PHA-based definition); (2) more than 50
percent of the buildings occupied by
voucher beneficiaries and public
housing residents are in rural areas (a
building-based definition); or (3) more
than 50 percent of the tenants served
live in rural areas (a household-based
definition). One commenter
recommended that the term be
interpreted to mean an agency where at
least 50 percent of households assisted
through public housing and voucher
programs live in rural areas. The
commenter preferred this householdbased definition because a PHA-based
definition would conflict with the
meaning of ‘‘predominantly operates’’
and a building-based definition would
give the same weight to a building
regardless of whether it contained one
or many voucher holders.
Two commenters stated that HUD
should interpret this statement as
broadly as possible and utilize all three
definitions, so that as many PHAs as
possible can take advantage of
administrative streamlining. One of
these commenters continued by stating
that if HUD could not implement this
definition, it should adopt a definition
using the location of an agency’s
address, which would be easy to
implement and would not change
frequently.
Response. HUD’s interpretation of the
statutory language is consistent with the
commenters’ desire for an expansive
definition that considers both the
physical location of the agency’s
administrative office (a PHA-based
definition) and the location of the
tenants it serves (a household-based
definition).
Unit Counts. One commenter
recommended that HUD should exclude
special purpose vouchers in the unit
count, as well as units converted to
Project-Based Rental Assistance (PBRA)
through the Rental Assistance
Demonstration (RAD) program.
Response. HUD agrees that units that
have converted to section 8 PBRA
through the RAD program should not be
included because this assistance is not
covered by section 8(o) of the United
States Housing Act of 1937. However,
HUD is including special purpose
vouchers in the unit count as they are
funded under the tenant-based rental

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY
Federal Emergency Management Agency
[Docket ID FEMA-2020-0002]
Changes in Flood Hazard Determinations
AGENCY: Federal Emergency Management Agency, DHS.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: New or modified Base (1-percent annual chance) Flood
Elevations (BFEs), base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA)
boundaries or zone designations, and/or regulatory floodways
(hereinafter referred to as flood hazard determinations) as shown on
the indicated Letter of Map Revision (LOMR) for each of the communities
listed in the table below are finalized. Each LOMR revises the Flood
Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), and in some cases the Flood Insurance
Study (FIS) reports, currently in effect for the listed communities.
The flood hazard determinations modified by each LOMR will be used to
calculate flood insurance premium rates for new buildings and their
contents.
DATES: Each LOMR was finalized as in the table below.
ADDRESSES: Each LOMR is available for inspection at both the respective
Community Map Repository address listed in the table below and online
through the FEMA Map Service Center at https://msc.fema.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rick Sacbibit, Chief, Engineering
Services Branch, Federal Insurance and Mitigation Administration, FEMA,
400 C Street SW, Washington, DC 20472, (202) 646-7659, or (email)
[email protected]; or visit the FEMA Map Information
eXchange (FMIX) online at https://www.floodmaps.fema.gov/fhm/fmx_main.html.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) makes the final flood hazard determinations as shown in the
LOMRs for each community listed in the table below. Notice of these
modified flood hazard determinations has been published in newspapers
of local circulation and 90 days have elapsed since that publication.
The Deputy Associate Administrator for Insurance
[[Page 11379]]
and Mitigation has resolved any appeals resulting from this
notification.
The modified flood hazard determinations are made pursuant to
section 206 of the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C.
4105, and are in accordance with the National Flood Insurance Act of
1968, 42 U.S.C. 4001 et seq., and with 44 CFR part 65.
For rating purposes, the currently effective community number is
shown and must be used for all new policies and renewals.
The new or modified flood hazard information is the basis for the
floodplain management measures that the community is required either to
adopt or to show evidence of being already in effect in order to remain
qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
This new or modified flood hazard information, together with the
floodplain management criteria required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the minimum
that are required. They should not be construed to mean that the
community must change any existing ordinances that are more stringent
in their floodplain management requirements. The community may at any
time enact stricter requirements of its own or pursuant to policies
established by other Federal, State, or regional entities.
This new or modified flood hazard determinations are used to meet
the floodplain management requirements of the NFIP and are used to
calculate the appropriate flood insurance premium rates for new
buildings, and for the contents in those buildings. The changes in
flood hazard determinations are in accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.
Interested lessees and owners of real property are encouraged to
review the final flood hazard information available at the address
cited below for each community or online through the FEMA Map Service
Center at https://msc.fema.gov.
